I think it might be that your battery is dead, LiIon batteries are highly sensitive to overcharge, meaning that they are damaged when you keep your charger connected after it has reached 100% charge. Get a new battery and try to avoid extreme charge states (full discharge and overcharge) are bad for your battery, don´t let it fall under 20% and don´t chrage it over 95%!! Hope this is helpful

I returned this battery for the same reason. The charger's light fluttered and the battery wouldn't charge. I took it out and reseated the battery a few times until it flashed slowly showing that it was charging. It was at three bars the next morning, but the charger was fluttering again so I don't know if it was fully charged. I put it in my D5300 and it went from three bars to flashing (no power) within fifteen minutes. Returned it and got the twice the price nikon battery

When you installed the battery did you allow it to charge for 24 hours before using the APC? (The APC switched off; no load on it.) Go to your instructions for the APC and check for the recommended charge time.

I got a similar unit and when I first plugged it in, it too showed "fully charged". I then unplugged it and checked the battery level, but it instantly showed 0V. So that told me the "full charge" reading was false and the charger was giving me that reading while the battery seemed like an "open circuit" and was not accepting power yet. So I did leave it plugged in and within 1/2 hour it began dropping the reading to show 65% charged or such which I knew was more realistic. So despite getting that "full charge" reading off the bat, it does need the charge time.

i belive, you did everything correctly. It is something worng to the battery. Try to recharge again, just charge it whole night and try again. If problem is not resolved, just send it back, if its possible

I did not have this issue. Other have recommended checking to make sure you have the batteries in the charger correctly (+/-). If this does not help your issue I would contact Amazon and arrange a return/exchange since they are most likely defective. I recommend an exchange since these are otherwise decent batteries.

Hi there! I've been using this battery for a month in that same model and had no problems so far. Maybe it's a faulty one. If i were you, i would contact Anker support service. =)

If u look up ah on the internet it tells u that the higher the number the longer the battery runs. If u r replacing the old batteries and still use the same case the charger is the same unless the original batteries are 12ah. Then check the charger to see if is meant to handle a larger capacity. I found mine worked great but the charger adapter is loose so the charge doesn't hold long. I need new charger available on Amazon.

Fortunately I have not had this problem. I would suggest attaching it to the charger one more time to see if you can get it to charge. Otherwise I would return it for an exchange. I bought an extra battery and have had no problems with the charging of either one.

The first time I allowed this battery to drop below 50% was after 1 year 4 months of ownership. And, now it wont charge to above 10 volts. So, yeah... I disagree based on long term use and experience with the product not just a generalized view based on manufacture information.

I'd start with a new battery....and since it has a memory you will need to let it run all the down in order to get a full charge and then leave on the charger about 3 hours maximum time.

I had the same problem. It would never fully charge my new motorcycle battery. It would say that it was charged but it would not even turn over. So the charger went in the trash. Sorry I couldn't help.

I would send it back if you can. I purchased same item and one battery will not charge and the other battery was dead out of the box and Amazon doesn't pay any attention to these messages or I would have heard from them from a previous message.
